G'day Leonie,

You can use these bags for number ones, but if you do we'd suggest using sawdust or something similar to soak up the liquid.

G'day Robyn,

If you're looking at the Kookaburra Portable Toilet, then yes the Elemental Bio-degradable toilet Bag Liners will fit.

G'day Louise,

The Bio-degradable Toilet Bags will generally begin to breakdown within about two weeks. We don't have information from the manufacturer to indicate the overall breakdown timeframe unfortunately. 

G'day Jim,

The Jimmy's Thunder Box can't be used with a bag liner, they are designed to be used over a drop hole. If you wanted to use a liner bag then we'd suggest going for the Elemental Thunder Down Under Toilet.

G'day Trent, 

The Oztrail Quadfold chair isn't designed for you to be able to attach plastic liners to. It works best over a bucket (which you would put a plastic liner on) or a hole dug into the ground. If you'd prefer a portable seated toilet that you can use a liner with, the Thunder Down Under from Elemental might be one to check out. 

G'day Karen,

I wasn't entirely sure about this, so I gave Elemental a call to see what they recommended for disposing of their Bio-degradable Toilet Bag Liners. They told me that because they're bio-degradable, you can bury them and they'll break down. The same goes for septic tanks, if you flush them, they'll break down. 

G'day Mike,

Unfortunately, the Elemental Bio-degradable Toilet Bag Liners aren't able to be sealed. You'd need to knot the bag.

In terms of disposal, it really comes down to local regulations of the area you are travelling in. Some councils/land owners don't mind you throwing in bins, other prefer you use dump points. Best to check with them.

G'day Mel, 

I've just given the supplier a call about your questions, and this is what they've told me. 

Elemental have told me that they don't think it's a good idea to add any chemicals to the waste, as they're not sure if there would be an issue with acceleration, so we wouldn't recommend using Biomagic or any other powders. 

These bio-degradable bags are also not ideal for storing waste in for long periods of time, they're designed to be one use, and then disposed of at an appropriate dump point as soon as possible. 

They won't fit sorry Daz. We have tried to get replacement bags for the Bush Dunny before with no success. We recommend the use of biodegradable garbage bags as an alternative, or just digging a really deep hole, which is what the Bush Dunny is really designed for.

G'day Chris,

I've just had a look at the packaging on the Elemental Toilet Bag Liners, and they are 100% biodegradeable so they should be fine to dispose of in long drop toilets.

It is always a good idea to do a quick double check before disposing of waste, as these things can be a little tricky and you don't want to get yourself into a mess so to speak! 

G'day FBS003, 

Thanks for letting us know, this is a topic that we always recommend that people do their homework on before they dispose of waste at any disposal point (where it be a longdrop or otherwise) just to be on the safe side.
